The daughter of Doctor Moreau : a novel / by Moreno-Garcia, Silvia,author.;
Carlota Moreau: A young woman growing up on a distant and luxuriant estate, safe from the conflict and strife of the Yucatán peninsula. The only daughter of a researcher who is either a genius or a madman. Montgomery Laughton: A melancholic overseer with a tragic past and a propensity for alcohol. An outcast who assists Dr. Moreau with his experiments, which are financed by the Lizaldes, owners of magnificent haciendas and plentiful coffers. The hybrids: The fruits of the doctor's labor, destined to blindly obey their creator and remain in the shadows. A motley group of part human, part animal monstrosities. All of them live in a perfectly balanced and static world, which is jolted by the abrupt arrival of Eduardo Lizalde, the charming and careless son of Dr. Moreau's patron, who will unwittingly begin a dangerous chain reaction. For Moreau keeps secrets, Carlota has questions, and, in the sweltering heat of the jungle, passions may ignite. The Daughter of Doctor Moreau is both a dazzling historical novel and a daring science fiction journey.

Scaredy Squirrel visits the doctor / by Watt, Mélanie,1975-;
Scaredy Squirrel is exactly the character children need today--a little bit anxious, a lot adorable and totally lovable. Join Scaredy on a hilarious adventure as he learns to brave the doctor for a check-up! Scaredy Squirrel keeps himself in peak physical condition. He exercises, eats a balanced diet, sings opera (to keep his lungs healthy, of course) and brushes his teeth. You might think it's to stay fit, but no--it's all so he can avoid the doctor's office and the dangers presented by other patients! After all, who'd want to expose themselves to the hazards of snapping turtles, squawking parrots and irritable chihuahuas? It's a prescription for disaster! But Scaredy can't avoid the doctor forever, and when he realizes that he needs to make a quick visit to Dr. Vet to get his health certificate, he does whatever it takes to keep safe while he waits at the clinic ... including covering himself in bubble wrap. Yet things don't go according to plan, and Scaredy ends up discovering that his doctor's visit leaves him feeling better than ever!LSC
